And so, after firing the opening salvo, the enemy fleet reveals itself... I've never played the game, but I have to imagine no one would want to face FIVE Hime-class Abyssals at once.
Again, thanks to Paracite for providing the scans. I really wish Nnescio, Paracite, and/or the other regular translators would come back to the site, because this and the last three pages are untranslated (and have been for a while now).

I think... there's actually only four hostile abyssals here, the ones from the cover image a pages back... though that makes little difference considering who that group is comprised of. The biggest threat present (or most notorious of the enemies) is Air Defense Hime, armor that would put a battleship to shame and still only considered a "destroyer". As the name implies, the anti-air she brings with her pretty much shuts down any sort of attack from above and she still carries torpedoes like any destroyer on top of the absurd firepower Hime-tier abyssals carry. To make matters worse, she's got Supply Depot Hime, Ancient Destroyer Hime, and Heavy Cruiser Hime - an installation, yet another abyssal destroyer, and a heavy cruiser in that order. The latter two have pre-emptive torpedoes meaning each one can potentially knock out a member of the fleet before shelling can even begin while the former can launch planes to further deny air superiority for the fleet. Truly a fleet that would likely only appear in an admiral's nightmares.
Makes me wonder if we'll see Central Hime or Jellyfish Hime sometime in this series too.

Tatsuta's vocalization is "Kiya", which is is basically a feminine scream/cry of dismay. I took some liberty with Nagato's line in the third panel, but I think it's more or less correct. I'm not really sure what Air Defense Hime is saying in her 2nd bubble of panel 5...
Anyway, I'm too tired at the moment to mess around with text coding right now, so someone else can do that if they feel up to it.
